📖 Scoring Rules
How points are calculated for each game
Base Points
| Outcome | Points |
|---|---|
Exact score You predicted the precise final score (e.g. 3–1 and it ended 3–1) | 7 |
Correct winner + goal difference Right winner and right margin (e.g. predicted 3–1, ended 4–2) | 5 |
Correct winner only Right winner but different goal difference | 3 |
Wrong winner / draw mismatch Predicted the wrong team to win, or predicted a draw when there wasn't one | 0 |
Multipliers
| Condition | Effect |
|---|---|
🇱🇻 Latvia game Any game involving Latvia — points are doubled. Jokers cannot be used. | ×2 |
🏆 Playoff game Semifinal, Bronze Medal, or Final — all points are doubled | ×2 |
🃏 Joker Use up to 3 jokers across the tournament on group-stage games (not Latvia games). Doubles your points for that game. | ×2 |
⚠️ Multipliers stack — a joker on a playoff game would give ×4, but jokers are only available for group-stage non-Latvia games.
Examples
Group game, Latvia vs Canada ends 3–1:
- Predicted 3–1 → 7 × 2 = 14 pts (exact + Latvia)
- Predicted 2–0 → 5 × 2 = 10 pts (correct winner + diff)
- Predicted 4–2 → 5 × 2 = 10 pts (correct winner + diff)
- Predicted 1–0 → 3 × 2 = 6 pts (correct winner)
- Predicted 0–2 → 0 pts (wrong winner)
Group game with 🃏 Joker, Sweden vs Finland ends 2–2:
- Predicted 2–2 → 7 × 2 = 14 pts (exact + joker)
- Predicted 1–1 → 5 × 2 = 10 pts (correct diff + joker)
- Predicted 3–1 → 0 pts (wrong outcome — draw vs win)
Prediction lock time
Predictions lock 1 hour before the game starts. After that you cannot add or change your prediction for that game. Plan ahead — the lock timer is shown on each game card.
